A trailer of sorts for a longer video (The Lessons of the Loess Plateau) about the amazing transformation of the moonlike Loess Plateau area of China back into something resembling its once verdant state, with massive economic gains for the local residents. A great introduction to landscape level restoration efforts and their magnificent effects.
